Body and Soul

Body and Soul - Ruth Etting

I＇m lost in the dark

Where is the spark

For my love

I＇m lost in the night

Holding the light

Of my love

The heavens opened and closed

As well I might have supposed

And I am left in disabandon

So far removed from all that I had planned on

My days have grown so lonely

For I have lost my one and only;

My pride has been humbled

But I am his body and soul

I was a mere sensation

My house of cards had no foundation

Although it has tumbled

I still am his body and soul

What lies before me

The future is stormy

A winter that＇s gray and old;

Unless there＇s magic

The end will be tragic

And echo the tale that＇s been told so often

My life revolves about him

What earthly good am I without him

My castles have crumbled

But I am his body and soul

What lies before me

The future is stormy

A winter that＇s gray and old;

Unless there＇s magic

The end will be tragic

And echo the tale that＇s been told so often

My life revolves about him

What earthly good am I without him

My castles have crumbled

But I am his body and soul
